All Chapters of Everyone Thought I Would Never Leave: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

I quietly sat on the couch in the living room after the innocent-looking college student, Clarence Nolan, followed my wife, Grace Snow, into the bedroom.I ended up listening to their intimate noises for the entire night.Dawn had just broken on the horizon when Grace stepped out of the room while wearing a sexy nightdress.Disgust roiled in my gut when I smelled the cloying scent of their lovemaking that wafted out from the open door.Grace approached me and asked coldly, "Are you satisfied now?"I looked up at her and retorted, "I think you should be the one who's satisfied."Grace suddenly lost her temper and exclaimed, "You're the one who keeps setting me up with different men every day! You're the one who wants me to give birth to an heir for the Snow family."Besides, you're probably bored of me now since we've been married for a decade. I'll grant your wish then. I swear that I'll never share the same room as you ever again from this day on! Also, I want you to send Clare

"Don't forget that we'll be getting our divorce certificates later, Grace," I said.The gentle expression on Grace's face vanished and was replaced by disdain."You're just a househusband who's already in his 30s. You haven't worked for the last decade, and yet you believe that you can provide for yourself in the future? Everyone knows that it's impossible for you to divorce me. Besides, hasn't it always been your wish for me to have a child?"Go check on Ruth. I'll spend some time alone with Clarence."I felt like a zombie as I made my way over to Ruth's hospital room. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I looked at her thin face.Mom and Dad died early. Ruth was three years younger than me, and we depended on each other to survive.Ruth was sexually assaulted by the heir of a wealthy family during the first year that Grace founded her business.I wanted to make a police report, but Grace stopped me, saying that the heir had agreed to make a large investment that would change the

Unfortunately, the stack of documents only consisted of organ transplant consent forms.All the recipients were wealthy people. I had also seen some of the donors' names online because they had been in the news for being lured to Corombina.It was obvious what had happened, but there wasn't enough conclusive evidence to prove that Grace had been responsible for the illegal organ trading.I felt dazed when I left the police station.The rain had stopped, but my heart still felt incredibly hollow.My phone was buzzing constantly. I didn't have to look at the screen to know that Grace was calling me.After being married to her for the last decade, I didn't have any other friends except for the wealthy wives who I had befriended for the sake of her business.I walked along the road for the next ten minutes before the screeching sounds of brakes cut through the air. A few seconds later, a black Jeep stopped next to me.A cheerful voice resounded from within the Jeep as a woman wound

We shared all our meals back then, but I didn't feel as if we were suffering because our lives were filled with hope and love.I had to give credit where it was due—Grace had a talent for business.It didn't take long for her to make connections with people with spare money on their hands and convince them to start a company with her.To ensure that she would have absolute authority, I sold the family heirloom that Mom left me and used all the money I had to help her become the biggest shareholder.Looking back on the past, I realized that the wonderful love that I shared with Grace had just been a massive illusion. Everything that she did was just a part of her scheme.I eventually fell asleep to the sound of the rain and thunder.…Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.I had no idea what Clarence did, but Grace stopped contacting me.I held up my hand and counted down the days with my fingers. There were only three days left before I would be free.What would I do? Wher

I chuckled as I pulled out the divorce certificate from my bag and tossed it on the ground."I'm not your husband anymore. We're divorced now!" I shouted."I can't believe you were actually serious about getting a divorce," Grace exclaimed. "Fine. So what if we're divorced? We were together for so many years. I'm sure that you don't want the father of my child to be a criminal."I laughed even louder upon hearing her words. "Still protecting him even now, huh? The child growing within you doesn't belong to him, you fool! I conducted an investigation on him. He has extremely low sperm motility." It was clear that Grace still didn't believe me. "You're just jealous because I've been indulging him. That's why you're spreading these rumors! But you're also the one who pushed me into another man's bed, so why are you causing a fuss now?"I scoffed and said, "I'll reveal the truth to you today, Grace. The one who's been setting you up with those men is your own father. He was worried t
